OCR Page 1 of 90Leahy Fourth Revised Law Enforcement Funding
June 8, 1998
The floor for the law enforcement band within the Public Health
Account will be increased from 17.5% to 21.5%. This will produce
an extra $100 million per year. The new numbers will be
allocated as set forth below.

These are minimum amounts for each year, and may be spent over 3
years.
Minimum amounts for FDA will be stated in percentages for each
year. Minimum amounts for state and local law enforcement grants
will be stated in dollar terms each year. The grants will be
administered by the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation
with the Attorney General and the Secretary of HHS.
This provides an extra $100 million for FDA in the first year,
and $20 million less in the out years than originally requested.
Because the funds can be spent over 3 years, the result is a real
increase of $20 million above what the McCain bill provides for
FDA over 5 years.
No minimum amount has been specified in the McCain bill for the
federal anti-smuggling activity or for state licensing grants.
These would fall into the unreserved funds and would be subject
to appropriations, just as in the McCain bill. The unreserved
funds available exceed the amounts available for these purposes
under the McCain bill after the first year.
